Elon probably shares your sentiments, since he was an avid reader of Feynman. Source: http://www.iop.org/careers/workinglife/profiles/page_37749.h...

Feynman himself once said that he didn't like honors: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f61KMw5zVhg

So when Elon won the Lady Vivamus sword after accepting the heinlein award for advances in space commercialization, he fools around with it instead of just being another trophy, sometimes to impress the ladies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRpqZjfFzGg



Yeah Elon is perfect. Except for being peer pressured by shady super wealthy people.


I apologize for the hero worship, but I was merely trying to share some information that might be interesting to others. Elon is by no means perfect, his public speaking needs a lot of work, for example. Curiously though, he doesn't stutter at all when he was interviewed by Hannah. =)
